This post is not about my trip
I know, I know, you want to read about the trip. (Which was quite wonderful, by the way.) You all know by now that the mystery destination was New York City, and I do have a post in the works. I promise. However, today was spectacularly busy and shitty at work so I simply don’t have the energy to finish it tonight. I make no promises about tomorrow, either.
Instead, you get this:
A side-by-side comparison of an old-school Little People Old Lady and my Old Lady Yogurt. Notice the similarity in the shape of the plastic body versus the plastic bottle. I wonder if this is a coincidence, or if the yogurt people are making a subtle statement about their target demographic. As a side note, I remember even as a child finding it strange that the Litte People women had an inner-tube uni-boob. Hopefully that isn’t a change my body will eventually be making.

Very interesting. No way is that a coincidence…
Can’t wait to hear about your trip! (I’ve already told Paul that I want to go to NYC for my 30th birthday in October…)

what it’s subtlely telling you is that by using their “system regulating” product, you will acheive the historically recognized hourglass symbol of the feminine…its a marketing ploy….like Cosmo, they’re callin’ y’all fat…..don’t let the ‘man’ keep you down. Hopefully the probiotics won’t make you mildly psychotic like it’s done to Jamie Lee……

I find it totally unacceptable that you have been home for 5 days and have not posted about your trip. WRITE, Woman!
